socratic-knowledge 0.1.5

Enterprise knowledge management system with multi-tenancy, access control, versioning, and RAG integration.

Socratic Knowledge

Why Socratic Knowledge?

Enterprise knowledge management needs multi-tenancy and governance. Socratic Knowledge provides:

• Multi-Tenancy - Completely isolated knowledge spaces for multiple organizations with tenant-level access control
• Access Control - Role-based permissions (RBAC) with fine-grained control: Viewer, Editor, Admin, Owner
• Full Versioning - Complete history tracking with rollback capabilities for all changes
• Semantic Search - RAG-powered semantic search with embeddings for intelligent retrieval
• Audit Logging - Complete audit trail for compliance, tracking all changes and access patterns

Enterprise knowledge management system with multi-tenancy, access control, versioning, and RAG integration.

Features

• 📚 Knowledge Organization - Hierarchical knowledge base with collections and documents
• 🔐 Multi-Tenancy - Isolated knowledge spaces for multiple organizations
• 👥 Access Control - Role-based permissions (RBAC) with fine-grained control
• 📝 Versioning - Full history tracking with rollback capabilities
• 🔍 Semantic Search - RAG-powered semantic search with embeddings
• 🤝 Collaboration - Multi-user editing with conflict detection

• 🔌 Framework Integration - Works with Openclaw and LangChain

Quick Start

Installation

Simple Example

from socratic_knowledge import KnowledgeManager

# Create knowledge manager
km = KnowledgeManager(storage="sqlite", db_path="knowledge.db")

# Create tenant (organization)
tenant = km.create_tenant(name="Acme Corp", domain="acme.com")

# Create collection (folder)
docs = km.create_collection(
    tenant_id=tenant.tenant_id,
    name="Documentation",
    created_by="user123"
)

# Add knowledge item
item = km.create_item(
    tenant_id=tenant.tenant_id,
    collection_id=docs.collection_id,
    title="API Guide",
    content="How to use our API...",
    created_by="user123",
    tags=["api", "guide"]
)

# Search
results = km.search(tenant_id=tenant.tenant_id, query="API")

# Get item
retrieved = km.get_item(item.item_id, tenant_id=tenant.tenant_id)

Core Concepts

KnowledgeItem

The main entity representing any knowledge artifact (document, note, etc.)

@dataclass
class KnowledgeItem:
    item_id: str                    # UUID
    tenant_id: str                  # For multi-tenancy
    collection_id: Optional[str]    # Parent collection
    title: str
    content: str
    content_type: str               # "text", "markdown", "json"
    version: int
    created_at: datetime
    updated_at: datetime
    created_by: str
    updated_by: str
    owner_id: str
    permissions: Dict[str, List[str]]  # {role: [user_ids]}
    tags: List[str]
    metadata: Dict[str, Any]

Collection

Hierarchical container for organizing knowledge items (like folders)

@dataclass
class Collection:
    collection_id: str
    tenant_id: str
    parent_id: Optional[str]        # For hierarchy
    name: str
    owner_id: str
    permissions: Dict[str, List[str]]
    inherit_permissions: bool       # Inherit ACL from parent

Tenant

Organization/account for multi-tenancy support

@dataclass
class Tenant:
    tenant_id: str
    name: str
    domain: Optional[str]           # e.g., "acme.com"
    max_storage_mb: int
    is_active: bool

Access Control

Role-based permissions (RBAC):

• VIEWER - Read only
• EDITOR - Read + Write
• ADMIN - Full access
• OWNER - All permissions

API Reference

KnowledgeManager

Main interface for knowledge management operations.

class KnowledgeManager:
    # Tenant operations
    def create_tenant(self, name: str, **kwargs) -> Tenant
    def get_tenant(self, tenant_id: str) -> Optional[Tenant]

    # Collection operations
    def create_collection(self, tenant_id: str, name: str, created_by: str,

    def get_collection(self, collection_id: str) -> Optional[Collection]
    def list_collections(self, tenant_id: str, parent_id: Optional[str] = None) -> List[Collection]

    # Knowledge item operations
    def create_item(self, tenant_id: str, title: str, content: str,
                   created_by: str, collection_id: Optional[str] = None,
